Default unplugged maf on thursday still having problems.

before the oil warms up its fine.
when it warms up: if i go wot it shutters very badly. stops pulling altogetheraround 3000rpm
the car is not right but drives normal if you don't push it.another thing is i started to notice at idle i feel a lil kick every now and then. maybe its ignition but what else can cause this?

It sounds like you're in Valet mode <scratching head>. You should have a CEL if you are misfi

have you had a chance to log the car at all while it does this or is it throwing any CEL's?

Default could be a multiple of things........

-loss of power
-smoke out exhaust
-oil in IC/IC hoses

Do you have any check engine lights?

Default no cel. 2nd you can't give it too much gas or it just gets really lumpy and throttle goes to sh*t.

the car is in stock mode, however it does the same thing in street. so, what do turbos do when they die? could it be they cant make power any more?

Default I doubt this is it because of the lack of CEL's but, did you check your Power Output Stage

a.k.a. Ignition Control Module. If not, I would pull them and check them out w/ a multimeter....it is an easy check......there is a writeup in the B5A4 forum
